What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Architect

    Serious, capable and ambitious. Builds a life step by step, and gets more playful and lighter with age. Purpose and drive in one place: he is quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.

    The Sun conjunction Mars (exact at 0.0°) · For a birth after 4:00 p.m., his Sun was in Aquarius.

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Libra, the Peacemaker

    Feels most at peace when the people around him are at peace. Needs beauty, balance and someone to share things with. Intense, private feelings: he keeps an inner life few people see, and he guards it well.

    The Moon conjunction Pluto (almost exact at 0.7°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

    Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with. Love feels like something to be earned, and he holds back until he is sure of it.

    Venus square Saturn (almost exact at 0.3°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Capricorn, the Planner

    Thinks practically and plans ahead. Speaks with authority and a dry sense of humour. His head and his feelings argue: he knows what he thinks before he knows what he feels, or the other way round.

    The Moon square Mercury (close at 1.3°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Capricorn or Aquarius, the Achiever

    Determined, controlled and built for the long climb. Works patiently toward the top. He takes on more than any one person can, and his boldness runs ahead of his plans.

    Mars opposition Jupiter (wide at 4.8°) · For a birth after 5:08 p.m., his Mars was in Aquarius.

  6. The shape of his chart

    Mercury is the hub of his chart: it takes part in five of its aspects, more than any other body, so his mind touches everything else in it. The weight of his chart sits in earth signs: the practical and the solid.
